Control Board
| Account limit of 2000 requests per hour exceeded. |
It has been surmised that a panel may be needed to check into the credentials and expert status of online article authors to see if they pass the proper standards test or can cut the mustard. Many seasoned experts are a little miffed that some online article authors write "thinly veiled" content. A few have floated the idea of setting a panel or quality control board to serve this process.
But is that even feasible? Some of the top online article writers believe that it is not such an easy task and perhaps may not even be feasible. Indeed, I think I agree with this line of thought in that a quality board is way out of the question as some days there are well over 1,000 articles submitted in a single 24-hour period on one top online article submission website and thus it is simply outrageous how much work that might be.
Indeed I also agree that the "human innate characteristics" of small panel group participants is a given, thus a panel in itself would be problematic. For instance who watches the panel and then are their disputes on rulings, thus rules. And once you make "one rule" well you got em' lifetime job security? And even if a panel could decide what an expert is, that would be a definition. Which brings up an interesting question?
Definitions and rules is a similar process, in that if you make one definition, you are forever further redefining it and creating more. This leads to bureaucracy which is indeed leads to less fluidity of motion, and less agility, thus ruins all the good that is. If you have more definitions, rules and panels all you have created is more minutia and less efficiency, to what avail?

Management Consultants: Take Control of Scope Creep
Often management consultants are hired to accomplish a specific goal, but before the engagement is complete, the project’s scope has expanded to include more than you or the client bargained for. Because scope creep often happens quietly, it’s easy for a management consultant to spend time dealing with it without even realizing that he or she is doing a significant amount of extra work. By developing a formal scope-change control process for each engagement, you can give all stakeholders an opportunity for their suggestions to be considered, while ensuring that your project stays on track and on budget.
It all starts with a clear definition of what’s included in your project’s scope – and also what isn’t. By clearly establishing these expectations up-front, you’re making the project boundaries clear to all team members. Then, you can let all stakeholders know that any suggestion or request that relates to the project, but falls outside those boundaries, will be considered a scope change, and must be evaluated using a well-defined scope-change control process.
Defining a process to manage requested project changes should happen early in the project analysis and planning phase. A well-documented change-control plan helps to:
Improve communication among all team members regarding requested changes
- Provide a logical process for evaluating requested changes
- Offer team members a way to report any problems that arise during the course of a project
- Show team members that their contributions and ideas are valued
- Maintain control over project goals and use of resources
Who’s in Charge of Changes?
As the management consultant leading a project, it’s a good idea to establish a “change-control board†that will be responsible for evaluating the feasibility of proposed project scope changes. Heading up this board will be a chairperson with the authority to make final decisions regarding proposed changes and for assigning specific tasks to others, such as evaluating suggestions and implementing suggested changes.
Next, you’ll need to develop a formal process by which team members can submit ideas, concerns, suggestions or issues to the project’s change-control board. The board will also need to create a spreadsheet or database detailing each change request and tracking its status, time and resource requirements, and other important notes.
When a change request is submitted, a designated individual should be assigned to assess the idea’s viability, pertinence to the project, quality impact, potential risk, and time and resource requirements. This person reports his or her findings back to the board, which can either seek more information, if necessary, or decide whether the change should be made now, later, or not at all.
How Are Changes Implemented?
For all except minor project changes, it’s a good idea to present the proposed change to the project or organization’s key leaders to gain their buy-in before moving ahead – especially if it involves pushing back deadlines or requires the commitment of additional resources.
If the change is approved, the board chairperson can then assign an individual who will be responsible for implementing the changes. As the management consultant, you’ll need to negotiate any revisions to the schedule or other project commitments with all affected team members. If project plans or schedules need to be updated to incorporate the change, be sure to keep all parties informed.
Establishing a process for managing scope creep requests reassures all team members that their suggestions will be carefully considered. Because a formal change-management process provides a complete impact analysis for any suggested change, it can also help to pinpoint and reduce risk for management consultants.
